Enabling PCP to Specialist Collaboration on Care Plans
eConsults ensure patients are treated in the right setting, with the right provider, at the right time. They deliver higher patient satisfaction and retention, improved network management and more efficient care. Enabling PCP to specialist collaboration on care plans, AristaMD’s eConsult solution improves access to timely specialty care for patients who would have otherwise had to wait for a separate face-to-face visit.
